You wish to know where I came from, and what I have done in my life? You see, that is a mystery even I cannot tell you. I can tell you the events of my life from the moment I laid eyes on the tower of Orthanc, only a month ago. I stood on a little vista and felt the cold, winter air slice through my pink robes. I dropped my staff. I seem to do that often you see. As I looked at the tall tower, I could not help but feel that it felt familiar, and a sense of belonging washed over me. I cannot explain fully the feeling I got, but at that moment, I knew the people there would welcome me, even though I had never met them, nor could I tell them about my past. I walked towards the tower and found a home. My next quest is to find a memory, one that could very well be futile.


To describe a single set of robes for Kit would be ridiculous, as she is in the possession of several sets, each varying in style as to fit their purpose. She still has her comfortable, nearly-disintegrated robes she wore in her first reliable memories of her coming upon the tower, which are simple in design and contruct, and are used on really muddy days that she has to go outdoors, and to go to the stables. She has less heavy robes that are perfect for studying tomes of vast knowledge in, but still durable to last the slightly-humid atmosphere of the stone tower. Lastly, Kit has her fancy robes, ready for any special occasion that warrants fancy dress, resplendid in form-fitting, flowing splendour. The thread that ties Kit's various robes is the colour of coral pink, a colour to which Kit has attached her superstition of luck. That luck still remains to be seen.


Kit isn't sure how her coral pink staff came into her possession, it was in her hand from her first reliable memory. Her staff is an even six feet tall, slightly taller than herself. The shaft is smooth and doesn't splinter, with the head widening into a spiral that can safely encase small objects. The head and the shaft are of the same piece, the transition seamless.The coral pink colour is distinctive, but not created with any paint, but is the colour of the wood. However, the reason Kit adores her staff is it's simplicity, functionality, and just kooky enough for her personality.
